Re self publishing 01:15:44 Leo Gregory: We have a website that was created with a Mac based software. Is there a software to converted Mac web pages to a windows base software or word press? 01:16:12 Kal_Somo OPCUC: Windows 10 Has the compatability Mode option to be able to run Win 8 Apps. 01:17:19 Jeff Dubois: If the gizmo only works under windows 81, install a virtual machine under VMware workstation and run it under the vm. It needn/t be on the internet 01:17:21 Kal_Somo OPCUC: Compatibility mode in Windows 10 enables software designed for earlier versions of Windows to run correctly by emulating the environment of that older version. This is useful when programs fail to start, crash, or display errors due to changes in Windows architecture, security features, or system requirements 01:17:22 Carol: Replying to "There are no stupid questions" I concur, Tom, yet one risks receiving sarcastic replies by those who chose to view a Q as such. Hence the need for courage to speak up despite this risk. :) 01:18:48 Leo Gregory: Will get more info on the package 01:19:02 Natalie: Replying to "Compatibility mode in Windows 10 enables software designed for earlier versions of Windows to run correctly by emulating the environment of that older version. This is useful when programs fail to start, crash, or display errors due to changes in Windows architecture, security features, or system requirements" Best Buy reviewers had problems using that specific product with WIN 10. I'd do a larger search for compatibility. 01:19:34 Serge-ร‰rik: Thanks everyone! 01:19:37 Natalie: Thanks, 01:21:50 Chris Taylor, President OPCUG: https://opcug.ca/google-groups-how-to/ 01:22:15 Chris Taylor, President OPCUG: Send your questions, answers, and topics you wish to share to: SuggestionBox@opcug.ca 01:22:52 E O'Driscoll: Another interesting session - thanks. 01:22:55 Carol Pearson: Thanks
